Autumn coquina shells on Sanibel island

Just when I’m missing how beautiful it is up north when the leaves are changing to colors of red, orange and yellow -I look down on my Sanibel beach to see this…

Autumn COQUINAS!

Well of course I found the sunny Florida COQUINA and JINGLE shells too that always make me happy.

Combing the beach through a sea of white ARKS, CROSS-BARRED VENUSES, KITTENS PAWS and JEWELBOXES…

Clark found a fab juvie APHABET CONE, few sweet shells and a BAY BEAN. This is another type of SEA BEAN we find on Sanibel but I didn’t get a good photo of this one- next week, ok?

Of course we had to laugh when we saw this TURRID (“Clark, it’s not called a turd, its called a turrid !!” … every time- haha)

We are giving thanks to feeling the island style fall harvest of the colors in our beloved seashells and sunsets.
